We found him!
(From the Twitter comments, which are hilarious)
Afraid of being asked about his stock scandal, perhaps?
Wow. Having to debate with himself.
That what I call really working your Ossoff.
Pfffffffffffffffffffft…
I still can’t believe there’s people who can listen to this sort of thing and not go “huh?”
Granted, I didn’t watch the debate itself, and from other reports both sides were a little disingenuous with deflections… but that rather goes beyond a deflection.
From a new Trump loss in Michigan…
Well… yeah.
There’s also a hearing going on right now in GA… live-tweeted here:
(Powell just now claimed that the QR code on the ballots in GA is “completely unverifiable”. And… while there’s a valid issue there with the voter not being able to verify that QR code, it is completely inapplicable in this election due to the hand recount!)
…And the GA case just closed out with another Trump loss. I’ve removed the bit about the audio stream for that one, according to the youtube page the audio isn’t available afterwards. The judge dismissed it with a laundry-list of reasons, including mentioning that if the case continued in federal court rather than state court, it could reasonably open accusations of… wait for it… “judicial activism”.
But on Monday Fulton County Superior Court rejected the lawsuit because the attorneys didn’t pay the proper filing fee or fill out the paperwork correctly.
Clearly, only the Best People for this thing.
I represented myself when I filed a Motion for Change of Residence to take my son with me when I moved down to Lexington, KY in 1995. I was working for attorneys who defended doctors in medical malpractice cases, and I asked the attorney I was was working for to review all the paperwork, after I proofed it myself.
Of course, I wasn’t a lay-person, I worked for lawyers. But the standard was THERE - to have everything all nice and neat and properly spelled and grammatically correct, using all the necessary jargon. Seems that nowadays, they just fill in the blanks like it’s a suit written for Mad Libs or something like that.
…or visit a professional hair colorist.
I wonder if it’s possible to win a Republican primary on the platform that “Donald Trump is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I’ve ever known in my life.”
So now Trump wants to have all in-person absentee ballots for Milwaukee County thrown out, among other things. And he directly names Biden and Harris as defendants, for some reason, even though they would have had nothing at all to do with anything in the filing.
Now the state of Texas is suing Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Georgia and Michigan, asking that the court order the certification deadlines in those states to be extended.
I’m not a lawyer, but I’m having a real hard time seeing how one state can claim that it was injured by the way an election was run in another state. And the complaint seems to be full of all the same familiar conspiracy theories and unsupported allegations, with the added allegation that all of these states somehow applied rule changes that specifically benefited Democrat voters.
Do they have standing to file the suit? Shouldn’t the Texas state legislature be involved somehow?
That’s the million-dollar question. Or maybe the quadrillion-dollar question would be more apropos, since one of their claims is (I swear I’m not making this up) that Biden’s chances of winning in those four states was less than one in one quadrillion. I would love to see the math behind that assertion, but seeing that they somehow think Trump’s lead early in the counting process has any bearing on how likely Biden was to win once counting was finished, I strongly suspect that the person doing the math is yet another completely unqualified idiot being presented as an “expert”.
The probability of former Vice President Biden winning the popular vote in the four Defendant States—Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin—independently given President Trump’s early lead in those States as of 3 a.m. on November 4, 2020, is less than one in a quadrillion, or 1 in 1,000,000,000,000,000. For former Vice President Biden to win these four States collectively, the odds of that event happening decrease to less than one in a quadrillion to the fourth power (i.e., 1 in 1,000,000,000,000,0004).
